Sunny angles
Over there. Walking any time it strikes me as settle into retirement, I’ll spot the sun coming toward the lake at the end of my block at all sorts of angles. I hope.
Getting a charge out of Teslas
Plugged in and getting ready for another drive. Did you see all the Teslas? asked my dear wife Karen before we started the walk from her other-make vehicle into Syracuse mega shopping, dining and entertainment complex Destiny USA. No. A quick look to the far edge of the parking lot note a line of the…
Happy installation
I almost forgot this important update … Found: a Liverpool company that decided to hook up the gas line and finish the installation of the new dryer, too. Yes, indeed, Charles Plumbing, Heating and Electric. It is nice, indeed, to have the new washer and dryer taking care of our laundering needs in our own…
Skelly says bring on Valentine’s Day

Happy new house looks lovely
Pretty picture. The snow fell, and I asked my terrific daughter Elisabeth if I took the short drive to take photos of the lovely new house she and George Three have settled into just a mile down the road. She texted back sure. It makes me so happy. Now I can capture nice images here…
Take a bough
Stay right where you are. New snow can be downright clingy, says I as I peer out after taking tentative steps on the back deck.
Lovely backyard blanket
Pretty picture. Our backyard was waiting for the blanket of white to cover the winter pale green grass and leftover autumn leaves and such. This is much easier on the eyes, for now.
